    When adding FO.....

    I read some where that FO can act like a base oil so you take some base oil out to compensate for the FO. Meaning if you have 4 oz. of FO, you take out about 4oz of base oils. Does anyone do this?

    Cotton Candy/Pink Sugar

    I read in a post somewhere that someone on the forum purchased a terrific FO of cotton candy or pink sugar.
